    IMG_6309.jpg Hey everyone this is my first post been looking at this forum for some time now. Today I went to replace the turn signal/drl bulb. I replaced both bulbs, turn signal works but I have no white running light. I switched back to the old bulbs and I’m having the same issue. Is there a fuse I could’ve blown that is preventing me from getting the white light to come on. I’ve attached a picture of what they should look like. I’m very confused because even with my original bulb setup I have no white light. Literally was working 30 minutes ago before I started to change bulbs. Any help would be appreciated.

    Are you checking with the truck off and does it need to be running for running light to come on?

    Was your E-brake on when you checked them?
    You have to have the E-brake OFF before they will come on.

    Those are stock tundra wheels from 2011-15 tundras in running adapters but I haven’t had any issues and they really make the truck look a lot better

    If you still have parking lights elsewhere, then a severed wired(s) could be the culprit.
